  • Easy-to-use device with variable sound quality
Configuration: Echo link
I recently downsized my system to a modern integrated amplifier with a slew of digital inputs and built-in high-quality DAC. Since I already use Alexa for other things, the Echo Link seemed like a solid, cost-effective way to get into music streaming. Setting up the device was simple and took less than 5 minutes. I am using a TOSLINK cable to take advantage of my amp's DAC. Alexa immediately recognized the Link and I had it added to a group with an Echo Dot for voice control in seconds. It really could not have been easier to have it up and running. Connecting from Amazon Music on my phone is also simple and hassle free. Listening to music this way from a convenience standpoint is really revolutionary. I doubt I will go back to CDs very often, and I have thousands of them. The issue I have is that the music quality from track to track varies wildly. Some sound amazingly detailed while others are thin and brittle, and in some cases the available quality reported by Amazon Music does not match the actual sound quality. Unlike streaming via blue tooth, Amazon Music does not tell you the quality you are actually getting, only the available quality. However, I can say that in general streaming via the Link does sound better, and is more stable, than via blue tooth. Still, if you use Amazon Music as your streaming source, you won't regret getting a Link. ... show more

  • Stream on echo devices/speakers + home/wired speakers!
Configuration: Echo link
Let’s us play a) streaming music - Amazon Prime, Apple Music, local radio station (Cardinals baseball on AM 1120 KMOX via Audacy app),etc. b) bluetooth music and/or c) other input source via red and white RCA plugs / input jacks (unsure how to get turntable/phonograph to play through Link) Via i) home stereo… Link to receive via red and white RCA plugs / input jacks to speakers ii) Alexa speakers - individual or speaker groups iii) both home stereo & Alexa speakers AWESOME!!! In the Amazon app, you can setup - Music source for albums to Apple Music - Genre like “play Smooth Jazz” or “play Classic Country” to Amazon Prime Music - Podcasts to Apple Music This is great! Connecting our iPod to the home receiver was a challenge as the output volume of the iPod was low, forcing HIGH volumes to wired speakers to hear at a normal / not loud volume. EchoLink has higher output volume so we can play the music via EchoLink to speaders at a normal / not loud, or a soft, or a “let’s turn it UP!” volume. Our home was built by the previous owners, who installed two ceiling speakers (one pair) in each of four rooms, with a volume control (Elan VS124-10); the local stereo store proposed we’d need a ~$2,000+ receiver to power the 8 40W speakers… but we didn’t… we just needed this wonderful little $200 Echo Link and our existing 100W/channel receiver (circa 2000).

  • Dramatic improvement over the DOT connection
Configuration: Echo link
I had an extra Dot after upgrading another part of my home's Echo collection, so I connected it into a spare set of inputs on my main audio system. This was mainly an experiment to see if I could easily use Alexa to stream to the outdoor speaker system that runs off the main system so I wouldn't have to come inside to change CDs or flip vinyl every so often. The convenience of Echo voice control however just makes you do more and more with what you have, but in my case at least, the sound quality off the Dot was definitely lacking. In the house I have a mid-range somewhat vintage but very transparent audiophile system with a Musical Fidelity preamp into an updated Eagle Amp driving a pair of lightly modified Magnepan 1.6s. The Dot did what I originally wanted, but listening to it as the source other than when I was outdoors was fatiguing at best except for background entertainment music in whole house or main level configuration. No problem initially, but over time, the mismatch between the Dot and the main system's capabilities just got more and more annoying no matter what. I saw the Echo Link, liked the capabilities on paper vs what the Dot could do and grabbed one during a recent combo sale+credit card discount perq. One of these days, I may break down and invest in a decent external DAC and use optical connections, but for now, I just connected the analog outputs of the Echo Link with a set of garden variety RCA signal cables from the spare parts bin, powered up and joined it to my network. WiFi connectivity is required for initial setup, but was a little spotty compared to other devices in my network, so if you can connect via ethernet cable, I recommend that after setup via that required WiFi connection & Alexa is completed. I had very few issues with the setup process and quickly added the Link into the main floor group the Dot had been part of. BTW, I was pleased to see that the volume indicator LED's faded out a few seconds after any level adjustment whether by the large knob on the front or via the Alexa app - There are already too many LEDs glowing in the dark on too many devices in my life. With it all connected, I fired everything up on the main and asked Alexa to play some music. The initial sound was just....awful...harsh, grating, way too bright. Definitely was getting way more detail from the Link vs the Dot, but it was painful to listen to and I was considering returning it and investing in some other solution. I don't think I've ever had a component addition sound this bad on my system. before just giving up, I decided to let it run for a while with reduced volume and see if it settled in with some time on it. I let it run this way over a period of a few days, trying it out for a bit turned up each day. It seemed to get noticeably better after about the 3rd day. It was still too bright and harsh sounding, but it wasn't driving me from the room any more. I was still a little unhappy though, so today I yanked the original signal cables and started experimenting with some lower capacitance signal cables and now I have the Link giving me what I'd hoped for. I might try a few more interconnects, but right now, channel separation is very, very good / better than I expected. resolution and clarity are quite good for what this little device costs, and while I still prefer my other sources for serious listening, this is head and shoulders way above what the Dot can do. It is a worthwhile addition to my old school audio system, adding simple, convenient voice controlled streaming capability without spending a fortune that I can enjoy listening to. That said, on higher performance systems, you may need to spend a little time experimenting. I found it needed a little burn in time and was as in-your-face sensitive to cable characteristics as any piece of analog out audio gear I've owned. I'm a little disappointed in the Wifi but that may be something unrelated to the Link itself. I'm happy with my purchase and I'm keeping it. ... show more
